canada healing

I have just got back from teaching animal healing in Canada. The Canadians are genuinely friendly and very protective of the wild life in their national parks, far more measures in place than in the UK. I live in the New Forest and there are no protected areas , hence wild life here is under a great deal of stress. In Canada they often close tracks/areas to lessen human impact on wild animals and the situation is carefully monitored.

So what did I see? A female grizzly bear eating wildflowers on a hill side, a female moose and her tiny calf, a male moose with big antlers wandering down a road, elk, mule deer, eagles, hawks, white pelicans, chipmunks, ground squirrels, coyotes, a pine marten, a badger ( they look quite different to our Uk ones) , foxes , hummingbirds and lots of other beautiful birds.

My favourite place on this trip? It´s got to be Lake Louise very early in the morning before the tourists arrived - the water was as still as a mirror with the glacier reflected in it and birds singing in the forest on the mountains. Pure magic.
